Beschreibung

"Secrets of Allium" presents a comprehensive exploration of ornamental alliums, charting their remarkable transformation from humble wildflowers of Asian steppes to striking garden showstoppers. The book skillfully weaves together botanical science, historical narrative, and practical gardening wisdom, offering readers an unprecedented look into these architectural plants known for their perfectly spherical flower heads and sturdy stems.

 
Through three distinct sections, the book first uncovers the botanical heritage of over 750 allium species, showcasing their incredible genetic diversity through detailed illustrations and photographs. The historical journey reveals fascinating insights, including their prestigious status in 17th-century European royal gardens and their ancient medicinal uses in Central Asia.

 
The final section transforms scientific knowledge into practical application, featuring detailed profiles of 50 notable varieties and expert guidance on cultivation techniques, from soil requirements to companion planting strategies. What sets this work apart is its balanced approach to both scientific depth and practical utility, making complex botanical concepts accessible to gardeners of all levels.

 
The book addresses contemporary gardening challenges while emphasizing the vital role of alliums in supporting pollinators and promoting biodiversity. For landscape designers, gardening enthusiasts, and botanical professionals alike, it serves as both an authoritative reference and a practical manual, incorporating recent research findings and sustainable gardening practices throughout its pages.

    Dalai Lama (2000) believes that seeking happiness "lies in our nature": The desire or need to be happy knows no bounds. It is something that lies in our nature. As such, it needs no grounds and it is justified by the simple fact that it is something we rightly want out of our nature. One has also asked if happiness is as important in all cultures. The answer is that happiness is at the top of the wish-list in every country; It is more important than wealth and to come to heaven, and as important as love (Diener and Biswas-Diener, 2008)...what makes us richer has been costly. The wealth, or what has been the prerequisite for wealth, has reduced a quieter life, close and stable relationships, we are moving apart. A materialistic lifestyle has a negative connection with happiness (Hellevik, 2003). NEF (2016) has calculated values on Happy Planet Index for 140 countries. Highest ranks Costa Rica and a number of other countries in Latin America. The population of Costa Rica has high values for happiness and longevity, and they have low values of ecological footprints. Norway has very high values of happiness and longevity, but also of footprints. In total, Norway is ranked twelfth and therefore highest among European countries, but closely followed by Albania. The United Kingdom is at thirty-fourth place, Canada number eighty-five and the United States number 108.
